The fifth edition of the NYIOOC — the world’s largest and most prestigious olive oil competition — will be held April 24 – 27 in New York City. Around 900 entries from at least 26 countries will be analyzed during the four-day event.
The winning entries — the best olive oils in the world for 2017 — will be unveiled at 5:30 on Thursday, April 27 during a press conference streamed live to a global audience of producers, distributors, food industry professionals and media outlets.
The venue for the 2017 NYIOOC will be larger this year to accommodate 200 attendees at the always-sold-out tasting event and press conference on April 27, and to provide more capacity for the media pool.
